Hop BroToday it's the lunch announcement for the Taito Ward beer pub, BEER OTAKU SPICE. On May 2, it's open from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. last order, so you can really eat and drink from midday.
MugiWait, they're serious about that from lunch!? A setup where you can eat and drink sounds amazing. It's the kind of thing that wakes up both your stomach and your mood all at once!
Hop BroThe main dishes are chicken biryani and tuna biryani. They layer the fragrance of spices with the richness of chicken and the savoriness of seafood, so they pair beautifully with beer too.
MugiI know biryani is delicious, but is that really such a different aromatic rice dish? It sounds fluffy, and just hearing that makes me hungry!
Hop BroThat's the interesting part - the key is how the spices come through. The long-grain rice carries the aroma, and because it locks in the ingredients' flavors, each bite leaves a different impression.
MugiI get it now, that's why it's easy to imagine the pairing with beer! And on top of that there's a lunch-only mazesoba too - so many choices, it's a happy kind of dilemma.
Hop BroThe guest beer is Minami Shinshu Beer's Yamaso Hop, now tapped. It's a fruit ale made with the red grape Yamaso Sauvignon, and it has fruity notes that feel like a sweet red wine.
MugiWait, it has a fruitiness like red wine!? Then if you pair it with spice-heavy biryani, it suddenly becomes a pretty sophisticated lunch!
Hop BroExactly - the aroma, acidity, and subtle sweetness neatly support the shape of the dish. It's not too heavy, but it still has a real presence, and that's the appeal.
MugiI've decided, I'm going with chicken biryani and a glass! But I also want the tuna, and the mazesoba too, so I'll probably end up going back again!
Hop BroThe appeal of the place is that flow of biryani and a guest beer at lunch, then a slower pace with a few more drinks at night. Yep, that really was an invitation that makes me want to go drink together today.
